Ned Nwoko says northerners who marry more than two wives are helping to prevent women from becoming prostitutes

Philanthropist and Billionaire businessman, Prince Ned Munir Nwoko in an interview has opened up how polygamous men help society and her population.

Ned Nwoko who’s married to six women including actress, Regina Daniels, reveals that the concept of a polygamous family has helped Northern Nigeria in all ramifications.

As he reveals his truth in an interview with BBC Igbo, he said the average northerner has at least two wives and this helps the society by preventing women from venturing into prostitution.

In his words;

“The average Northerner marrying two, three, four women, they are helping the society because it is the economic downturn that has affected so many women who you see doing prostitution and all that. But the fallacy of it all is that Christianity does not allow that in the South and yet, the average Southern man has 10 girlfriends.”

Speaking further, Nwoko said the polygamist nature of northerners has helped to increase their population and made them the majority in the country.

“I love my culture as I know it, not as they are trying to dilute it. Igbo culture is wonderful and should be promoted the way it has always been.

But even looking at that, look at your population in Nigeria and what I will call the economy of marriage, as an Igbo man with one wife, four children, a Northerner has four wives with five children each, in the next 10 years, 20 years, imagine the population of the Northerners.”
